The corrosion behavior of duplex Ni-P coatings deposited on AZ91 magnesium alloy was studied. The electroless deposition process of duplex Ni-P coating consisted in the preparation of low-phosphorus Ni-P coating (5.7 wt.% of P), which served as a bond coating and high-phosphorus Ni-P coating (11.5 wt.% of P) deposited on it. The duplex Ni-P coatings with the thickness of 25, 50, 75 and 100 µm were deposited on AZ91 magnesium alloy. The electrochemical corrosion behavior of coated AZ91 magnesium alloy was investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization method in 0.1 M NaCl. Obtained results showed a significant improvement in the corrosion resistance of coated specimens when compared to uncoated AZ91 magnesium alloy. From the results of the immersion tests in 3.5 wt.% NaCl, 10% solution of HCl and NaOH and 5% neutral salt spray, a noticeable increase in the corrosion resistance with the increasing thickness of the Ni-P coating was observed.

Plastic deformation of magnesium alloy is limited because of its HCP structure. Though the grain refined magnesium alloy exhibits superplastic deformation at elevated temperature, the strength decreases due to induced cavitation. This study focusses on developing the random texture of magnesium alloy and causes relatively high plastic deformation even at room temperature. Random texture is produced through newly proposed accumulative diffusion bonding process using commercial AZ91 magnesium alloy sheets. Tensile and V-bending tests reveal that the enhanced ductility of the produced magnesium alloy sheet.

In this research, the effect of accumulative extrusion bonding (AEB) on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg-0.8Mn-0.5Ca biocompatible alloy was investigated. The goal of this research was to develop the mechanical and corrosion properties of Mg-0.8Mn-0.5Ca alloy after ABE process as a novel severe plastic deformation process. The simulation of AEB process showed that the average effective strain per pass for channels with the internal angle of 120? is about 1.93. The average grain size was dramatically decreased from about 448.3 ?m for the homogenized alloy to 1.55 ?m for the 3-pass processed sample. Microstructural observations suggested a combination of continuous, discontinuous and twinning-induced dynamic recrystallization as the major mechanisms of grain refinement. Tensile and compressive strengths were improved from 150 and 205 MPa to 330 and 301 MPa after three passes of AEB, respectively indicating 2 and 1.5 times improvements, respectively. Tensile elongation decreased from 26 % for the homogenized sample to 7.5 % for the 3-pass processed sample due to the severe work-hardening, non-uniform strains and inhomogeneous microstructure produced by ABE process. Corrosion resistance in SBF solution was improved from 1.1 to 14.159 K? Cm2 after three passes of ABE due to the presence of hydroxyapatite formed on the surface of the AEBed samples.

The microstructures and corrosion properties of AZ91 magnesium alloy with trace additions of Sc were investigated. The microstructures were observed by OM and SEM, and the corrosion properties were studied by electrochemical technique. The results show that the alloys with Sc form a second-phase Al3Sc, the grains become finer with the increasing content of Sc and the microstructure is the finest when Sc content up to 0.6%, the corrosion resistant of alloy combining with Sc is improved.
